Review of Natural Selection (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for AV Club (2,778) on 15 Mar 2012

A generous, unguarded performance from Rachael Harris cuts through the cuteness of a quirky premise in Natural Selection…

Review of Detachment (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 15 Mar 2012

Comes across like the creation of a precocious student…

Review of Seeking Justice (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 15 Mar 2012

Some of the film's limpness is due to the fact that Cage plays Will in a minor weird key as opposed to one of his major ones -- there are no…

Review of A Thousand Words (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 09 Mar 2012

It doesn't help that even the pratfalls in A Thousand Words look tired and recycled…

Review of Footnote (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for AV Club (2,778) on 08 Mar 2012

The love, jealousy, and stubborn pride of the relationship between Ashkenazi and Bar-Aba is the heart of the film, and that makes the deliberately…

Review of The Decoy Bride (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for AV Club (2,778) on 08 Mar 2012

Tennant and Macdonald are appealing performers, but they aren't given scenes that convey they even like each other, much less that they're…

Review of Let the Bullets Fly (2010)

By Alison Willmore (681) for AV Club (2,778) on 01 Mar 2012

That dedicated wryness makes the endless twists and betrayals easier to process-these are awful people, but it's sure a lot of fun to watch…

Review of Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 01 Mar 2012

You really need chemical aids to be able to sit through something so unabashedly half-assed…

Review of Good Deeds (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 24 Feb 2012

While Wesley is both too good to be true and an absence of a charisma on screen, Good Deeds is very fair to its two main female characters…

Review of Wanderlust (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 23 Feb 2012

Wanderlust is an agreeable comedy that peters out halfway through…

Review of Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 17 Feb 2012

The smugness of the film grows wearying long before the end…

Review of On the Ice (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for AV Club (2,778) on 16 Feb 2012

The performances, all from non-professional local actors, are noticeably uneven, but the film is as much a portrait of a place as it is a narrative,…

Review of This Means War (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 16 Feb 2012

Bromance or romance, This Means War feels like something scrawled by enterprising teenagers who developed their concepts of love and espionage…

Review of The Swell Season (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 13 Feb 2012

It's an eloquent summation of the complexities and strength of their bond, and a poetic cap to the pair's fictional and real ups and downs…

Review of Bombay Beach (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 13 Feb 2012

But it's to little Benny that the film's heart belongs -- an adorable kid who seems to live only half in this world and the rest of the time…

Review of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 10 Feb 2012

The Phantom Menace, in any number of dimensions, is an exercise in disappointment, a film filled with enough callbacks to the first trilogy…

Review of The Vow (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 10 Feb 2012

Doesn't turn out to be as gauzily sentimental as its beginning (or its marketing materials) suggests…

Review of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (2012)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 09 Feb 2012

This is a family movie, after all -- but you'll have to sit through some abrasively broad, unfunny exchanges to get there…

Review of Perfect Sense (2011)

By Alison Willmore (681) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 08 Feb 2012

The perseverance of McGregor's restaurant, in spite of its apparent inutility in the changing world, ends up having more poignancy than his…

Review of The Innkeepers (2012)
